Latest comment: 5 months ago by GZWDer in topic Requests for global (un)lock and (un)hiding
Due to persistent vandalism and disruption on this page, this page is currently semi-protected indefinitely. Globally blocked or locked users should appeal to stewards@wikimedia.org or UTRS.
If your account was locked with the reason "Compromised account", please contact ca@wikimedia.org.
This page hosts requests for global (un)blocks, (un)locks and hidings.

If you are here because you have been affected by a global block, please see Global blocks/FAQ for more information about global block and routes to appeal.

Note: (un)blocks apply to IP addresses or accounts; and (un)locks apply to global accounts.

Requests for global (un)block

Latest comment: 5 months ago 55 comments9 people in discussion

Please be sure to follow the instructions below:
Your request might be rejected if you don't follow the instructions.
Please also review Global blocking .
Global blocks don't affect Meta-Wiki, so if your IP address or account is blocked, you can still appeal here. IP addresses or accounts that cause disruption on Meta should be reported at Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat instead of here so that they can be blocked locally.
Please describe the kind of cross wiki abusive activity you see from the IP or account. Saying an IP or account is a long term abuser is not helpful, but saying "IP vandalizes at ban.wikipedia, no.wikipedia and vi.wikipedia" is. This is especially important for range blocks. If you do not provide enough details, your request might be declined.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting, make sure that:

  1. You know the IP address(es) or accounts you wish to have globally blocked or unblocked.
  2. For blocks, the global blocking criteria are met.
  3. For unblocks, your request addresses the original reason for blocking the IP or account, if any.

To make a request for the address(es) or account(s) to be blocked or unblocked

Copy the template below to the bottom of this section and explain why the address(es) or account(s) should be blocked/unblocked.
=== Global block/unblock for [[Special:Contributions/Some IP address or account|Some IP address or account]] ===
{{Status}} <!-- Do not remove this template -->
* {{Luxotool|IP address/username}}
Description, evidence, diffs, etc. --~~~~
When requesting that your IP be unblocked, note that stewards need to know your IP address to even consider a request.
To find your IP, please visit https://www.whatismyip.com/
You are not required to disclose your IP in public - you may make requests privately to any steward on IRC or by email at: stewards@wikimedia.org

Requests for global (un)lock and (un)hiding

Latest comment: 5 months ago 44 comments17 people in discussion

Be sure to follow the instructions below:
  • Your request might be rejected if it doesn't include the necessary information.
  • Warning! This page is publicly viewable. If the account name is grossly insulting or contains personal information please contact a steward privately in #wikimedia-stewards connect or email your request to the stewards VRT queue at stewards-oversight@wikimedia.org (direct wiki interface) but do not post it here. Thanks.
  • Warning! This is not the place to ask for locks based on your opinion that someone is disruptive. Global locks are used exclusively against vandalism and spam, not because of content disputes, not because you think that someone deserves to be globally blocked. In such cases, you should ask for local blocks at appropriate places.
  • If you are globally locked, you should appeal your lock to stewards-appeals@wikimedia.org.
Please describe abusive activity of an account before reporting them here. Since stewards are often not active at projects the reported accounts are, things that seem obvious to you may not be equally obvious to the reviewing steward.
Temporary accounts (those with username format ~20##-#####) can not be globally locked. See #Requests_for_global_(un)block instead for them.
Instructions for making a request

Before requesting that a global account be (un)locked, please be sure that:

  1. You have evidence of cross-wiki disruption from the account(s).
  2. You can show that it is not feasible to use local-only blocks or other measures like page protection to combat the disruption.
  3. You have considered making the request in #wikimedia-stewards connect , especially for account names which will be hidden, or for urgent requests.
To make a request for an account to be locked or unlocked
Copy one of the codes below to the bottom of this section and explain why the account(s) should be locked/unlocked.
=== Global lock/unlock for Foo ===
{{status}} <!-- do not remove this template -->
* {{LockHide|username}}
* {{LockHide|username|hidename=1}} <!-- if you do not want the name to be visible on this page -->

Unauthorized bot operating cross-wiki. Marks as "edit war" admin operations such as reversion of vandalisms. Already blocked locally on some wikis (e.g. de.wiki, it.wiki).--Superspritz tell me 13:39, 17 September 2024 (UTC) Reply

Since the bot belongs to a constructive user and is flagged on bnwiki, I think it might be better to leave it to local communities if they object to the bot operating without a flag, also since a lock would prevent the bot from editing bnwiki. EPIC (talk) 13:51, 17 September 2024 (UTC) Reply

    Please help for Képészmérnök. His message from talk page: "I would like to request an exemption from IP blocking based on the following reason: The block was made by ‪Xaosflux‬. The reason given is Open proxy/Webhost: See the help page if you are affected: ZSCALER_PROXY (DATACENTER). Start of block: 2024. június 17., 17:47 Expiry of block: 2026. június 17., 17:47 Your current IP address is 136.226.199.93. The blocked range is 136.226.0.0/16. I use a company computer with a company network, where I can only use software and settings validated by the system administrator organization (only Win11, only Chrome). Zscaler is set by the organization, I can't change it. I only edit on huwiki, I've been organizing and patrolling pictures for years. I've never been blocked. It is not a risk if I get an IP block exemption for my username, because anons can no longer edit from behind the anonymizing proxy. I would have asked for support on huwiki for this request, but unfortunately I can't edit the discussion pages either. Thank you in advance for your favorable assessment."
